How To

How To Fly Drones For Beginners

A drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle that can be remotely controlled and used for surveillance, aerial photography, film production, research, and other hobby purposes. The technology behind drones has been around since World War II. However, commercial use began in 2010 when DJI released their Phantom series of quadcopters. There have been many types of drones since then, including beginner-friendly drones like the Parrot AR Drone 2.0 and professional-grade multi-rotor crafts like the DJI Mavic Pro.

You can fly a drone in many different ways, including:

1. Remote control - This method uses a control device attached to your hand, which enables you to steer the drone through its flight path. There are two main types: Joysticks (like a radio), and On/Off switches (like an alarm clock).
2. Manual Control - This method uses a smartphone app to remotely control the drone using GPS coordinates. You will need to keep track of where the drone is going and follow the directions from the app.
3. Autonomous Flying - This allows the drone to take over all of the piloting duties. It basically flies autonomously without any human intervention. To enable autonomous flight, the drone should have a built in camera and sensors capable recording images and data.
4. Triggered Flight – This method is very similar to manual flight. The pilot creates a route that the drone will follow until it reaches the destination. After the preprogrammed route is complete, the drone will automatically land and return to its base.
5. Landing Gear - Some drones come equipped with landing gear that allows them to land safely if they lose power or run out of battery during flight.
6. Goggles - Some pilots wear goggles to protect themselves from debris while operating.
7. Camera – Some drones have cameras, which allow you to take photos or videos from up high.
8. Obstacles: Some drones are equipped with obstacle avoidance systems to prevent them from hitting obstacles.
9. Speed - Some drones reach speeds exceeding 40 mph.
10. Battery Life - Most drones are capable of lasting between 20 minutes and three hours, depending on the power that you use.
11. Range - Some drones can travel upto 30 miles depending on their models.
12. Power source: Some drones will require an external power source while others can be powered by internal batteries.
13. Weight - Some drones are lighter than others, while some models can weigh as much as 4 pounds.
14. Size - Drones can range in size from tiny devices that can fit in your palm to heavy crafts that weigh 50 pounds.
15. Price - All drones fall within a specific price range, from high-end models that can cost thousands of dollars to lower-cost options starting at $100.
